Truck Driver Pre-Screening Program Reality After Seven Years

Truck Driver Pre-Screening Program Reality After Seven Years
Quote:
n August 2002, a group of truck safety professionals went to the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration with a suggestion. Safety could be improved, they said, by letting employers check a key federal database for a driver applicant's crash and roadside inspection history.

It took seven years of persistent effort, and an Act of Congress, but now the agency is moving ahead with a Driver Pre-Employment Screening Program.

On October 7, Transportation Secretary Ray LaHood announced plans to give carriers access to portions of the Motor Carrier Management Information System - the data base that police and roadside inspectors use to check on drivers and carriers. The program is scheduled to begin in December.

I've been following this for a long time. There is a thread started about this in the industry regulations forums. This is the most important item, pertaining to drivers, that needs our attention!!! Otherwise, you may be looking for a new job, in a different field of work!!!!!
